How many new homes are actually selling in Hays County? In September, 144 of the 326 closed sales were for properties built within the last two years, representing a significant portion of the market's activity.
ALEX Intelligence analyzed the year-built data to identify which neighborhoods are leading this new-construction wave. The ranking is based on the volume of closings in subdivisions where at least five new homes sold during the period.
Sunfield in Buda leads with 13 closed sales, followed by Heritage with 10. Big Sky Ranch and Kissing Tree (a 55+ community) each recorded 8 new-construction closings. River Bridge Ranch rounds out the top five with 8 sales. These figures reflect the specific volume of new homes that reached closing in September, not total inventory or pending activity.
The median price for these new constructions varied by neighborhood, ranging from $222,109 at River Bridge Ranch to $562,500 at Big Sky Ranch. This data highlights where buyers are currently finding new inventory and completing transactions in the county.
While the overall market saw 326 closed sales, the concentration of new construction in these five areas indicates strong demand for newer builds in specific communities. Buyers looking for recent construction should focus their search on these active subdivisions to find available options that match current market trends.
